79/100??? I do not agree. Here in Ontario decent Canadian Rye ranges from about $35-$70. I picked this up admittedly on clearance for about $34 and was very surprised by it. I didn't expect it to be this flavourful which is why i'd been avoiding it for years. It regularly sells for around $43 which is more expensive than Wiser's triple barrel, Lot 40 and CR Northern Harvest Rye so I just never really paid much attention or expected much with it usually being on the bottom shelve. I figured the Canadian options were probably better....But no, this is pretty good. It's got a lot of rye characteristics I enjoy. Floral notes, dill notes, menthol notes and baking spices from the fresh oak like clove, nutmeg and vanilla. I'm not sure why this gets such a low mark for something relatively inexpensive and decent quality, but if I were to give it a mark out of 100 it would be 88 at least...It's definitely not a 90+ but if you like rye whisky and you can get this for a decent price, it's good stuff. So what if it's marketed as a mixer. So is Rittenhouse, but it's great.
